Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) released a report on the nation’s most incompetent and unethical governors. Governor Paterson is ranked among the Worst.
The group released a least of the worst 11 Governors based on corruption, competency, and integrity.
The 11 worst governors were listed in no particular order. They are:
Gov. David Paterson (D-NY);
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R-CA);
Gov. Mark Sanford (R-SC);
Gov. Bill Richardson (D-NM);
Gov. Haley Barbour (R-MS);
Gov. Donald Carcieri (R-RI);
Gov. Jim Gibbons (R-NV);
Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-LA);
Gov. Sonny Perdue (R-GA);
Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX);
Gov. Mike Rounds (R-SD);
The group cites Governor Paterson’s scandal involving aide David Johnson as a reason leading to him making the list.
Why are there only two democrats???
bring back spitzer , at least he was going after the crooks on wall street
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) is SCREWY! It is probably a left wing liberal nut job organization. Of the 11 Governors on their list appear some of our countries BEST Governors. I guess if you’re not to their left then you’re no good. A typical left group!
This group is a far left wing obama group.
Patterson is not on the right or conservative spectrum when it comes to politics, so why would this evil “typical left group” select him then to be on the list with best republicans on the planet?
This is just one organization’s list. They have an agenda, too.
Notice:
-A lot of Republicans who have been spoken about when it comes to the 2012 election (i.e. Haley Barbour, Bobby Jindal)
-the Democrats are
Bill Richardson- Obama’s competitor (though far behind) in 2008 elections
David Patterson- Obama wants him to drop out of the race and he won’t
Biased much?

I agree with Milhouse… Jindal and Barbour both have good reputations. I can’t think of anything “corrupt” either of them have done. If I dig, I suppose I could find something, but that would apply to every politician basically.
I agree; I don’t see how Jindal or Barbour got on this list. I’m sure they did SOMETHING wrong…but pretty much every politician has a little corruption somewhere. Not every single one, but most.
